Get healthy nails with Nailtiques

I recently came across Nailtiques who provide therapeutic nail products. Do your nails peel or break easily? Nailtiques Nail Protein can help give you the healthy nails you want. Well known in America, apparently people are crazy for it and I can now see why.

You can use it by itself and add the formula daily or you can use it a base coat with polish on top. I used it a base coat and my polish hardly chipped for days. The are various strengths of the Nail Protein, Formula 1, 2 and 3. Formula 1 is for those with healthy nails and need to maintain, Formula 2 is for those with brittle, weak nails which need some help. Formula 3 is for naturally hard, dry nails. Perhaps you bite your nails and done some damage? Formula 2  would be good to restore your nails.

They have a Nail & Cuticle Skin Gel which conditions cracked cuticles and rough skin around the nails. I few days after wearing this, a lady from a nail bar told me she could how I look after my nails and I have never been told that before. So it must have been doing  something right.

The nail polishes do not only have gorgeous colours, they are infused with the same protein treatment used in the formulas. So it works with the treatment products and allows the treatment to penetrate through the polish to the nail. The polish glided on and did not streak. This is me wearing Maui.

Nailtiques is quality nail brand so priced a little high but it so worth it! You can get Nailtiques from Amazon. The Nail Protein is £15 for 15ml, Skin gel for £15 and polishes for £10.95.

The Aldo Sale!

I went to Aldo event a few weeks ago where they previewed their AW11 collection. It reminded me how innovative Aldo shoes are. So I felt inspired to see what they have in stores. They have a sale on now so here is what I bought.

I really wanted a new pair of wedges and saw these at  a press day and ever since I have been dreaming about them. So when I saw them in the sale, well, they had my name written all over it.

Why stop at one shoe, why not get a bag as well? It looks a little different in the picture on the website but I still like it.

What have you bought in the sales? Or maybe you are waiting for the new AW11 collections? Their new collection has lot of sequins and party shoes. Check out the Aldo sale yourself here.

Beachwear from Fox & Rose

Going on a beach holiday? Lucky you. A kaftan has long been essential beachwear. Fox and Rose have some lovely kaftans and maxi dresses, embelished and prints, which will make the perfect addition. This embellished maxi dress is my favourite and exclusively designed by Ell & Cee for Fox & Rose.

 

Warehouse AW11 Preview

Here's a preview of what is coming in to Warehouse stores for AW11. Lots of sequins, party dresses, gorgeous bags, brights. This will seriously make a dent in my bank balance. Anything take your fancy?

Leather and feathers! Love this

New Skin Base from Illamasqua

Illamasqua is a brand I adore. They are innovative and daring shown by the adventurous eyelashes and claws. It is colourful and outrageous. They have recently released their new foundation, Skin Base, inspired by asian beauty balms.

My new iPad case from iLuv

I'm back!!!! It has been press day crazy here at Glamorous towers. It is weird looking at Christmas items in July but it has been so much fun. So on the many journeys, my iPad has been my saviour. Easy access to internet and emails and tons of apps. It goes everywhere with me and I treat it like my baby. When on the go, I want something to keep it safe and being a fashion blogger, it is got to look good! So tried out the iLuv Neoprene Sleeve.

Nine West, shoes, bags and a new website

Nine West is the american brand that until now you have had to buy instore only as the online store was restricted to USA. Well Nine West have joined the rest of the world and introduced Ninewest.co.uk. So what can you order? I really want these wedges, perfect for summer...

Marc Cain A/W 11

At Fashion Press Week which was a few weeks ago, I came across a fabulous brand, Marc Cain. It is German fashion house named after an italian couterier. The collection is made with a woman in mind as it flatters and definitely one to watch. This coral dress is the shining star of the new AW 11 collection. I love the colour and fit, everything...

InStyle, Nicole and Eye Definers

I love InStyle Magazine for the fashion and beauty. The covergirl for August is Nicole Scherzinger. She talks about X Factor, Lewis and how on earth does she keep her body. I have always loved her look and can't wait ti see her in X Factor USA. The pictures are stunning with Nicole doing the splits in one ... in heels!

Now, the freebie. You get two eye definers or a mascara from Body Shop. I did not get a choice as a subscriber but I luckily I got what I would have chosen, the eye definers. The eye definers are in black and french navy. I have so many black liners so but the french navy is different, a dary navy blue. I can see myself wearing this for a smoky eye. They are soft to use. Unfortunately my Frech Navy got damaged in transit and broke in half. Not impressed. I will still use the half I can use. If you would like Body Shop, there is 20% off  with the magazine. Body Shop have a new bronzing collection for summer.

I have seen a lot of glitter/sparkle eyeliners in bright colours. I think one of these will be my next eye makeup purchases. Stila's new range looks amazing so I am leaning towards them.

Looking forward to InStyle's Best Beauty Advice Ever supplement with next month's issue!

What's New on QVC?

Up until a few weeks ago, I never ever watched QVC. I never thought they would have products I would like. So I a little skeptical when I went to see the AW 11 collection. Boy was I proved wrong! Members of the jury, may I present evidence 1.

sk:n is the UK's No.1 skin clinic and they have now announced a new skincare ranged formulated by the experts. They have the leading UK's dermatologists so they know a thing or two about skincare. The collection is split into 5 treatment areas so whatever your skin type need to work on, sk:n have what you need. Each range is colour coded so you easily identify what you need.

Lipstick Heaven from Boots

It's all about the lips. Boots have collaborated with the Lipstick Queen, Poppy King to make an exclusive range of lipsticks and lipglosses for No7 with gorgeous colours for summer. The range is 7 shades of varying degrees of red from a more pink hue to browns. I absolutely love red lips so this was begging to be tried. I tried 3 of the lipsticks and lipglosses.
